Great piece of work Philipp! 👍 The subject is an interesting one but how's the kit - recommended?

Thank you Murad! 🙂

The Hobby Boss kit is very nice - the details are very sharp and the tracks are excellent snap together workable track links that hold without glue. Regrettably this is the only of their Pershing kits that has them...the vinyl tracks that also come with it are horrible.

The only weak parts are the missing periscopes, which should be fixable with a few spare parts from any modern Sherman kit.

I noticed a few small errors for this particular vehicle that are easy to correct, I wrote a long report about that in the build feature at Model Armour I've linked on the project page (direct link won't work because of random smileys). 🙁

The turret armour has a few dimension issues, but it wasn't very difficult to correct them either. I really liked this build! 🙂

Thank you very much for the info, found your review at MA. Looks like this particular one is going to be another kit to for me to keep an eye open.
